Drake is facing competition from Rudimental on this week’s Official Singles Chart as the London band’s new single These Days challenges for Number 1.

The track, which features Jess Glynne and Macklemore, soars from 11 to Number 2 on today’s Official Chart Update, behind Drake’s God’s Plan by 5,000 combined sales at the midway point of the chart week.
